I was aware of the anime first but never got around to watching it, so now I'm reading it instead! Frankly, I'm not that well-versed on Sherlock Holmes and mostly only know the canon through pop culture osmosis, but this take on Moriarty is pretty interesting. I'm looking forward to reading the next few volumes to see how this series shapes up.

dark

damn ok so the genre is "8D chess type beat" but this shit dark as hell!! cast of pretty boys i had no idea how violent we was finna get but they jumped in headfirst fr. was actually a bit taken aback

at the murder of the actual William Moriarty and his mother and everyone else in the house by arson like that shit was cold af

Something about Moran having cool spiky manga hair in 1879 makes me cackle idk meanwhile Moriarty unironically slays with that cut i am looking respectfully. The art in general is TOP TIER I love the shading
